Look forward to the rodeo every year. Can’t wait! Been going with Lefty, Gus and Cowboy Steve since the mid 1980′s. We’re all getting plenty old but we haven’t hung up our saddles yet. We always go early, tie our feed bags on, then visit the venders. We thoroughly enjoy the rodeo. Wouldn’t miss it for the world. Great athletes, post rodeo concerts and overall over the top hospitality- both the rodeo committee and the people of Fort Madison! Even if it’s only for 1 weekend a year, God smiles on the arena of the Tri-State Rodeo. Definately the place to be the weekend after Labor day! Can’t get enough. Thanks for everything.

I haven’t found anything about the 2010 rodeo.
I live near Hannibal, Mo. and have been comming to the rodeo since 1970 and have enjoyed everyone of them. The rodeo preformers have been very professional and know how to get the people fired up. The announcers truely make the show. Tallman and the others have help the rodeo what it is today.
Please continue the great work. And a special thanks to all the locals that put so much of their time in making the rodeo happen.

I’ve only attended a few of the actual rodeo performances, but I have not missed a rodeo parade performance in my 27 years! The experence as a whole is a fabulous one! Make sure you watch the Rodeo performance, the Musical guests, and on Saturday don’t forget the parade!
